Model # - “WFR2460UC/01”.

Serial # - “FD 8108”. To find when the product type

was built, add 20 to the 1st two digits to get the year (81 + 20 = 101 Æ product type was built in 2001). The last two digits show the month (08 = August).

Factory serial # - Can convert factory serial # to FD # for warranty use. 1st 2 digits show factory # (45 = Berlin), 3rd digit shows year (1 = 2001), 4th & 5th digits show month built (08 = August). So, serial # starting with “45108…000320” = washer built @ Berlin with FD 8108 700032.

HINT: Loosen transport (shipping) bolts just enough to remove them from the washer -- don’t unscrew them completely so the bushings fall from the bolts into the washer frame.

HINT: Be sure to remove the transport (shipping) bolts & keep them near the washer (for future shipment).

,

HINT: To eliminate possibility of leaking, don’t overtighten fittings. Teflon tape can also be used on all threads.

Operation -- Sensors (1)

1A. Load Sensor (WFL2060UC)

At a predefined points during the initial fill, the washer determines if it needs more water using a pressure switch. This is due to differences in the absorption of the laundry and the size of the loads.

1B. Dynamic Load Sensor (WFR2460UC)

During the entire fill the washer continually adjusts for the size of the load and determines if more water is needed using an analog pressure switch and a flow meter.

2. Digital Temperature Sensor (WFL2060UC & WFR2460UC)

The thermostat monitors the temperature of the water and controls the length of time the heating element is on, ensuring the proper temperature for the chosen cycle.

3A. Suds Sensor (WFL2060UC)

During the beginning of the1st rinse/spin phase, the washer determines if there are excessive suds and automatically adds 2 rinses (if necessary). This is accomplished via the pressure switch and the motor synchronization system.

3B. Continuous Suds Sensor (WFR2460UC)

Checking the pumping out phase of the main wash, the beginning of the 1st rinse/spin phase and the actual spin speed vs. the programmed spin speed, the washer determines if there are excessive suds and automatically adds up to 2 rinses (if necessary). This is accomplished via the pressure switch, analog pressure switch and the motor synchronization system.

4. Unbalanced Load Sensor (WFL2060UC & WFR2460UC)

During the final spin cycle the washer monitors the positioning and balance of the load. If the load unbalanced, the washer stops and adjusts the load up to 15 times and reduces the spin speed to finish the cycle. This is accomplished via the motor synchronization system.

Operation -- Sensors (2)

1A/1B. Load & Dynamic Load Sensors

Mechanical Pressure Switch - (WFL 2060UC & WFR 2460 UC) measures the water

level after the first fill. If the water level is high (like for smaller loads), the pressure increases and the pressure switch does not provide more water.

Analog Pressure Switch - (WFR 2460UC)

Precise measuring of actual water level

Accurate load detection

Control of the pump - noise reduction

Time reduction - no pumping when empty

Operation -- Cleaning Drain Pump Traprap

Larger objects such as coins and paper clips are collected in the drain pump trap so they won’t plug up or damage other parts of the washer. The drain pump trap can easily be cleaned by customers.

shock, make sure the washer is unplugged

floors, replace the white (or gray) drain pump connector so washers will run properly

before changing any electrical connections!

and replace the shipping bolts so washers won’t be damaged during shipment.

SALES DEMO MODE PROCEDURE: Preparing WFR2460 washers for display involves removing three shipping bolts and disconnecting the drain pump. To set up WFR2460 washers for display:

Conversion: Make sure the washer is unplugged and is not connected to any water lines.

1.Remove the three shipping bolts from the washer back panel, removing the top bolt last. Each bolt has an insert wedging up to the inside of the back panel. When removing bolts, loosen them, then move them (up, left or right) until they slide out the large circular holes (matching the insert sizes). Don’t unscrew shipping bolts completely so inserts won’t drop into the washer base. After removing bolts, cover the holes with white caps included with the washer.

2.To access the white (or gray) drain pump connector from the back of the washer, remove the back panel by removing (7) T-20 & (4) T-30 Torx screws. Pull the white (or gray) drain pump connector to remove it, then secure the loose connector away from the frame or any washer parts with electrical tape (to avoid possibility of electrical shock).

3.Replace the back panel, then attach the fuscia label to the rear of the washer so its visible.

Power hook-up: Plug the washer into a 120V/240V transformer, then plug the transformer into a 120V, 15A power outlet.

Using demo mode: Rotate the cycle selector knob to the “Spin” position and then push the “Start” button to perform a complete spin cycle. To interrupt the spin cycle, push the “Start/Pause” button.

HINT: Before starting, make sure you have the following:

9B120V/240V transformer

9Fuscia demo mode label (“IMPORTANT”)

9Access to 120V, 15A, 60Hz electrical outlet

9T-20 & T-30 Torx screwdrivers

NOTE: Do not connect WFL2060 washers for sales demonstration -- all lights will turn on and washers won’t run.

Disassembly -- Top & Rear Panels (1)(1)

NOTE: Washers have 2 concrete counterweights (top & front) to dampen vibrations.

NOTE: When removing top panel, don’t damage white plastic top panel latches.

To remove top panel to access control module, dispenser, inlet valves, pressure switch(es), drain reservoir, surge protector & wiring, remove (2) rear screws, then carefully slide panel toward rear of washer (until panel stops) and lift panel up.
